A decade ago we set out to decentralize the Web, and to decentralize the Internet Archive. Why? What is our overarching goal? And how much progress have we made, as a community and as a digital library? The goal was never just about eliminating central points of control. It was a way to hack at intractable power structures and bend technology away from monopoly. In the end, what we want is a game with many winners.

Brewster will also talk about the Internet Archive's lawsuit, the verdict, and implications.

Brewster Kahle:

Founder and Digital Librarian of the Internet Archive, Brewster is a passionate advocate for public Internet access and a successful entrepreneur. He has spent his career intent on a singular focus: providing Universal Access to All Knowledge.
